Description The authors present a case report of duplicity of primary brain tumours. It occurs very rarely with an incidence reported to be 1/1 000 000. A 69-year-old patient was diagnosed with a glioblastoma multiforme localized frontotemporally on the right which caused clinical symptomatology and with a clinically silent, small meningioma in the left pontocerebellar angle. The glioblastoma was removed subtotally using craniotomy and the small asymptomatic meningioma was left for observation.
